ADVERTIsE YOUR, BUSINESS5.-DO NOT HiiDE YOUR miOIT: UNDER AD USHEL. ,,Whatever yotr occupation or calling iiay be, if it needs': support from.the public advertise it. thoroughly and efficiently in some shape or other, that will.arrest public attention. I freely con fess that what success I have had in my life may fairly be attributed more to the public press than to nearly all other causes combined. There m@iy possibly be occupations that do not require adver tising, but I cannot conceive what they are. Men in business will sometimes tell you that they have tried advertising and that it- did not. pay. This is only when advertising is I done: .sparingly and grudgingly. Homoepathic doses of advertising will not pay, perhaps-it is like lhalf...

METALAURoICAL DIScovEaY. - Tungsten,-is a metal which .ha .hitherto been little studied in a practical point 6l view. It appears, however, des tined to operate acomplcte revolution in the manu facture of stdel. Tt has been lately discovered that an alloy formed of 80 per cent. of steel and 20 per cent. of tugsten possesses a degree of hardness which has never been obtained in the manufacture of steel. This alloy works on the latter with ifi credible facility, and can even cut it. Experi ments have been made with this new composition at Vienna, at Dresden, and at Neustadt, Eurst waldo; and considerable quantities of the alloy in question are, it is affirmed, being manufactured in that part of the world. Meny old tin mines have been brought up with a view of extracting tungsten ore, and considerable prices have been paid for some that have not been worked for a long time.-Mor. ning Star.

THE COME'T OF 1859.--This new comet -dis covered by M. Tempel, at Venice, about the begin ning of April last, has been observed at Rome by Father Secchi, and at Paris by M. Von Villarceau. Ithus been rapidly approaching the sun, and about a few days ago was only about 8,00C,000 of leagues from it. Since the 29th ultimo, however, it has begun to recede at a rate of 2,000,000 leagues. in twenty-four hours, or twenty-four leagues per second, being 4 velocity at least 200 times greater than that of a cannon ball. This velocity is, indeed, gradually declining; nevertheless enough of it re mains to carry the comet to a distance of 36,000,000 of leagues from the sun, As to the distance of the comet from the earth, its nearest approach, which occurred on the 24th of April, was to. within 26,000,CJ0 of leagues. At present its distance is about 42,000,C23, and by the 30th of the present month it will be 49,0C,030 of leagues from our globe.-Athenwum. THE MyIA? TYPE.-A disdovery, which, if it f...

TO T'I iDITOI OF THE KIAMIA EXAInER. Sm,--In the report ofa speech made by me in your last issue, I am represented as stating there was only one school in the neighborhood alluded to. IIow the reporter could have so understood me, I cannot imagine. The whole drift of my argu ments and facts went to show the evil of multiplying schools in neighborhoods that ~ould only support one good one. The poorer dissenters were obliged to establish a "British School" In self-defence. Thus sectarian animosity and Jealousy were kept rife, and twohalf-famished schools woro in existeonce where there oughlt to have been one well supported, Tides was the re suit of tie Privy Council system in the country districtsof North Wales. I know of several such cases, and to such only did I allude in my remarks. Theroe is one other serious mistake, or rather deflcency, in your report, which I think yos oughtto rectify-the word "national" is omitted before the word "system" in the third resolution, which gives t...

DALTO~n'S PORTRAITn S OF THIE LEGISLA TIVE ASdSEMBLY. (FROM TnE S. II. HERALD.) We have received one of the first'impressions of Mr. Dalton's sheet collection of photographic portraits of the members of the Legislative Assembly. The size of the group is about seventeen inches by thirteen, a convenient size for either framing or transmission to distant friends. ?Vithin these dimensions the portraits of seventy-nine gentlemen are grouped, the non.receipt of the writ for the northern gold fields electorate preventing the absolute com pleteness of the series. The collection, how ever, represents the gentlemen who were re turned by almost universal suffrage and vote by ballot to the first Legislative Assembly under the Electoral Reform Act of 1858. The group is an interesting one in many respects. The portraits, though of the ordinary miniature size, are wonderfully true and life-like, tlhe characteristic expression and attitude of each hen. member being exhibited with the most careful-a...

IRON BRIDGE OVER THiE Ner id.-The Kaffra Azzyat malleable iron girder beam bridge across the River Nile, on the Egyptian Railway near to Alexandria, was opened to the public on the 25th of last month by the Pacha of Egypt. The structure is nearly 1400 feet long, has eleven openings, two of which are 104 feet each, and spanned by the swing beam. The centre of the swing rests upon a foundation pier, composed of six pillars of 10 feet diameter. These 28 foundiation pillars were sunk by cornm pressed air, on Mr. John Hughes' principle, to an average depth of nearly 60 feet below the bed of the river, and to 85 feet below High Nile; the internal pressure in the caissons while sinking ranging from 23l1bs. up to 341bs. on the square inch, in accordance with the depth in the ground and height of the Nile. The time occupied in sinking the 28 caissons was less than twelve months, and the aggregate length of that portion of them sunk below the bed of the river exceeded 1500 feet. The ex treme ...
